JPA @OneToMany -> Parent - Child Reference (Foreign Key)

Question

i have a Question about referencing ParentEntities from Child Entites ir If i have something like this:

Parent.java:

@Entity(name ="Parent")
         


        

Answer 1

It still seems to be the case. In parent Entity you can have something like

@PrePersist
private void prePersist() {
   children.forEach( c -> c.setParent(this));
}

in order to avoid repeating code for setting child/parent relationship elsewhere in code.
